Hello!
I am new to this forum, I am a translator and am translating Watership Down where I encountered this apparently simple but tricky name of a bird. Please help with a suggestion when possible.
My context is:
Skirting a small lake, they had stared to see a great gray fisher bird that stabbed and paddled in the sedge, until a flight of wild duck had frightened them away with their clamor.
My question would be:
Is this just a fisher bird or is it a specific wild bird (of Britain), please?
Thank you for your suggestions.
